Another mornings outting. Long Post!

I really wanted to go out and shoot (with my camera) some ducks today as I have the day off. I was pretty dissappointed with the heavy cloud cover and low light levels.

The day did start with a brief sunrise.

I did happen across this fellow (I haven't seen more than 2 of these my whole life and here I see two a week apart). He never broke out from this heavy grass he was in, so this is the best shot I got.

I hope you enjoyed them. Thanks for looking.

:shock:

i save all of them now.
thank you..

Very nice day you had and some wonderful shots captured. Thanks for sharing these. Great photos, as always.

You did such a great job capturing the eyes. Shooting ducks with a camera has to be more satisfying than shooting them with a gun, don't you think? Thanks for sharing.

Great shots and story again. ;)

Hey...I saw this same thread elsewhere. Don't tell Tim I was there and I won't tell him you were either. :)

lol, shhhhhh

Deal

At least there are more comments on it here. ;)

(What, you don't think I keep tabs on you elsewhere? :lol: )

Great shots. The sunset is beautiful.

Awesome shots! The sunset looked wonderful and they birds were cool too.

Great, you are lucky to be somewhere where you can just go on a walk and capture such a variety of animals and scenery. You may have answered this before but where are you from again?

Greta shots. Love that sky

Someone else may have to hook you up there, It's a bit of a drive for me.

Excellent shot of the sky/clouds...made me all tingly inside.
